Professor William Binchy:

Honestly, rather than interrupting me, I wish the Deputy would hear what I have to say. I refer to the logic of introducing a law that states that a person can take their own life and the logic of denying people beyond the limited category that Mr. Riley mentioned. Mr. Riley is interesting in what he said. When the question was put to him about a person who, with medical care, would last considerably longer than six months, but without medical care would die within six months, I understood he said that we do not want to impose medical treatment on people against their consent.
